....and the Op Shop Gods were smiling
I stumbled onto a little goldmine earlier this week.... I've lost about ten kilos over the last twelve months, and so most of my clothes don't actually fit me properly anymore.
I've been partaking in some regular op shopping trying to find some bargain clothes, and then this week I found that my local Salvos shop had received a couple of truckloads of Myer sample stock. On Tuesday my sister and I picked up about 10 tops and a skirt for the princely sum of $75.
Today we returned for some more bargains, to find that they'd increased the prices, but there were still some more beauties on offer.
I now have an entire new summer wardrobe of brand new clothes for about $150. Now that's what I call a bargain!

You lucky duck! Well done xo
I LOVE that denim jacket & the dress is very TRIBAL (that's a hot new trend you know!) – well done. Now, which op shop do I need to visit.....
That is AWESOME!
wow! fabulous finds! very jealous!!
Yay! You'll be the coolest cat in town.
Lovely finds. And kudos to you for a lil weight loss.
The gods really were smiling.
That is so, so wonderful for you - the grey top is my favourite. Also great that you lost so much weight. Congratulations. Cherrie
Fantabulous!! I seriously need to learn to op shop properly!
losing 10 kilos is an awesome feat, well done. Please share your tips because what ever i am doing is totally wrong. My fav is the jacket, I love it. Also your blog header looks fantastic.
Ooooooh fabulous - I love it when I see goodies that others have thrifted :)
I love that jacket!
Well done - on both the losing weight and the shopping!
Wow 10 kilos...well done and great shopping.You always seem to have the best oppies around!!x
that is what i am trying to do too... i just picked up 2 pairs of bermuda shorts $7 each a black and a brown and then 2 white tops $5 each... love the jacket!
Cam, I've got that denim jacket! Bought last year ('almost' full price at Myer) and been worn and worn and worn.....it will become a favorite!
PS Love the new header
nice stuff! snap, this time last year I was, well, fat after the twins so had to head to the shops today for new clothes! I'd never get good finds like that in sydney so 2 pairs of shorts and 2 tops at target for $106 was my bargain!
at least I have shorts and things to wear now that its warm! nothing more depressing than finding there is nothing to wear that fits!
Corrie:)
Oh well done on losing weight - can I ask what was your secret? Fabulous bargains you found.
